Do we get respect as SWE in EU? In every eu state I have been, except maybe uk in some sector, there was the meme that we are "the new blue collar workers" and indeed in a lot of places salaries were pretty much aligned

A thing I never understood is, what happens if, let's say, I stay in a HCOL area until I am doing interviews (eg Switzerland) and then when hired I move back instantly to a LCOL area (eg Albania): what happens now to my salary? Do I ge

I don't understand. In UK you can be associate professor without a degree? Then you talk about your time "during a master degree" but you say you had not a bachelors... How can you do a master without a bachelors? Now I under

I don´t know for all the eu nations, but for those that I know staff researcher positions still require degrees (and there is a lot of competition to get those because they are even more limited in number than tenure track positions, just w

Reading the comments seems more like a technical problem on the consensus protocol of some implementation of eth nodes (in particular openethereum and geth)

I think, but I am not sure, that parent was talking about the whole production chain, from raw materials to end product. For what I remember some(most?) components of arduinos are imported from outside EU. Correct me if I am wrong.

Can I ask how do you find those kind of contracts?

Yeah, with the use of "it feels" this time I was literally trying to express the feeling of "oh no, another big divergence in js" like it felt at the time (even if it was indeed ad "ideological split" as you sa

Honestly a standard library was needed since a decade but... I would have preferred a coordinated effort between browsers and node/deno. At this point even if just the browsers and deno get two different stdlib we risk _a_lot_ of usele

It feels like the old IO.js vs node.js. I hope this time too the two ecosystems get merged, but this time it feels much harder to happen

Is this updated? I see in the suggested resources to learn Go there is a book created in 2015... The language and related patterns changed so little that that book is still good? Or anyway, do you have any to suggest?

I had few contacts with consulting firms because I actively try to avoid them, in particular the big ones. But each one with which I had an interview was clear they were going to modify my cv for their client and they even asked me to lie i

Short answer: it is Hell. Long answers: - "linking libraries" between FE and blockchains are constantly broken, have _a_lot_ of undefined behaviours, and their error codes are few and totally opaque to what's really happening

Agree. Sadly both solidity and all the tools around it feel like a pile of broken things over other broken things over a lot of things who where brought up in a few days and forgotten in the todo world, and no one has the time or the will t

As a dapp dev for work, I totally feel the mental fatigue of constantly fighting the ever changing tool, the broken libraries, the inconsistent errors management and the cascade of breaking changes any modify causes. It feels like js fronte

At this point honestly I just wish for a general ban on tracking ads of any kind. Just give me good old contextual ads and remove some MBs of js, with the only purpose of tracking me, from most websites of the internet.

I don't think homebrew has more user than say apt or pacman. Maybe there are a bit more people running osx than linux, but much of them are not devs or "power users" and never run homebrew.
